"But, in the past, didn't dark creatures like to gather in places where all living things gathered? Even if there was a command, it would be impossible to make too many dark creatures completely obey the orders?"
At this moment, the female leader of the Elf clan, who had little presence these days, also spoke.
He didn't question Nalant like the orc Gus, his tone really didn't understand the reason, as if he was asking Nalant for advice.
"This Elf lady, you elves may not have fought against dark creatures for too long, so you don't know that the dark creatures now are different from before."
"Dark creatures in the past came across the void, and both their strength and intelligence suffered in the process."
"So, even if the dark creatures at that time came to attack together and were commanded by the leader of the dark creatures, they mostly acted based on instinct."
"In that instinctive action, many dark creatures will still often fall behind, so the dark creatures cannot make many planned attacks at all!"
"But it's different now. The dark abyss comes directly, and all dark creatures have enough wisdom."
"This means that they can fully implement the orders issued by the leaders of the dark creatures."
"In this way, even if there are so many cities in front of us that have not been breached, we are still at risk of being attacked!"
When Nalant faced this female elf, he was not as rude as he was to the orc Gus.
After all, it seems that this female elf really doesn't understand. In addition, these female elves are also very low-key. They only do their job and will not question Nalant.
"So that's it, thank you for the explanation!" The female elf nodded.
"Baron Nalant, if this is the case, then I will ask my people to be more vigilant next time!"
At this time, the dwarf Bronze Hammer had no doubts and immediately stated that he would listen to Nalant's reminder.
"We elves will also be more vigilant!" The female elf nodded.
"We Goblins will also be more vigilant. By the way, Baron Nalant, and everyone, the tunnel has almost been dug, but there is still a last small layer of soil that we have not excavated."
"Because I think since it is a secret passage, it is best not to dig the passage outside the city now, otherwise it will be troublesome if dark creatures discover it and let them get into the city from the tunnel."
"So, when we need to use the tunnel in the future, we goblins will dig it. Anyway, it is only three or four meters thick, and it only takes ten minutes to dig it directly!"
When the Goblin leader saw that both the dwarves and the elves had spoken, he also acted like a fool and responded as well.
Of course, what he said seemed to be in vain, because the goblins had no defense zone at all. Apart from digging holes in the ground, their activity areas were all within the city, and they didn't even need to go to the city wall.
Nalant rolled his eyes when he heard the goblin's answer.
These goblins still have some special skills and their brains are flexible.
But all of them were used on the idea of escape, and he could even think of a way to not open the last few meters of the tunnel.
But Nalant was too lazy to talk nonsense, and nodded immediately: "Okay everyone, now that you know it, I'm relieved, and this heightened vigilance is not just for us to defend this city, but because of the cities ahead.
But they all need to rely on our supplies for supplies.”
"I dare say that if our city is attacked, the army in front will never be able to hold on for more than a week!"
After saying that, Nalant returned to his front city wall without looking back.
Later, Nalant called back his extraordinary knights and magician army.
"Quick, Raymond, and Vivian, starting from today, you don't need to go out of the city at night to clear the collection, because I'm worried that dark creatures will suddenly attack our small town!"
After Raymond, Quick and others arrived, Nalant also directly issued the order.
"Yes, sir!"
Naturally, the few of them had nothing to say about this, and just accepted the order.
"Very well, go down and have a good rest! But I tell everyone, never take off your armor and never leave your sword. This order must be strictly followed by me!"
"Yes, sir!"
There was another respectful sound of taking orders, and all of Nalant's subordinates retreated.
After everyone exited the tent, Nalant sat down cross-legged and carefully felt the fighting spirit in his body.
"There's still a little bit left. If you can give me another three thousand energy points to exchange for strange fruits, I will definitely be able to break through and become a Sky Knight!"
These days, all his subordinates have gone out to fight and have earned him tens of thousands of energy points.
Although this amount is not large, it finally made Nalant's fighting spirit that had been stagnant for a long time improve.
But now, he is only one step away from truly breaking through and becoming a Sky Knight.
"Three thousand points. If there are no other accidents, according to the speed of Raymond and others, two days should be enough!"
"Haha, I'm really looking forward to it!"
Finally, Nalant withdrew from perception and began to practice magic with a smile.
…
It was night and there was silence in the small town.
But there was no peace outside the city, because Nalant stopped the harvesting operations of Raymond and others, so sporadic dark creatures gathered outside the city again.
From time to time, these dark creatures made menacing roars, which seemed a bit scary in this dark night.
But the soldiers on the city wall were used to it.
Unless these dark creatures come close, the soldiers on duty will attack with longbows or flying spears.
But tonight, because of Nalant's size during the day, there were many more guards on the left and front walls.
But on the orc wall on the right, the number of people on duty has not changed much from the previous few days.
Even many of the orcs on duty started to doze off because of the tranquility these days.
From the orcs' own point of view, this is no wonder for them.
Although it was not their intention to go on this expedition to help the human race defend against the dark creatures, the treatment they received from the human race was quite good to them.
For example, each orc has five kilograms of meat every day, plus a jug of good wine every day.
This allowed the orc soldiers who were used to poverty in the orc royal court to eat and drink well every day, which was very nourishing.
After eating and drinking enough, it is naturally most appropriate to have a good sleep.
In this way, even these orc soldiers on guard could not help but feel sleepy.
After all, this city is at the rear of the coalition forces, and it has been continuously cleaned up by the stupid human nobles these days, so what do they have to worry about?
However, what these orcs didn't know was that while they were soundly sleeping, a huge team appeared on the horizon five miles away on the right side of the small town.
This team is the dark creature that took a detour.
These dark creatures changed from their usual habit of roaring and roaring when they appeared. Instead, they quietly approached the city wall.
Even though there was a faint sound, it was not obtrusive because of the cover of the dark creatures that were already wandering outside the city.
And more than a thousand meters above this dark creature, there is a huge bone dragon soaring.
Seeing the small town approaching, the Bone Dragon straightened up again and jumped directly into the sky, then broke away from the team and accelerated towards the small town.
When the bone dragon reached high in the sky and looked down, it saw many orcs leaning on each other in groups on the right side of the city wall and sleeping soundly. It immediately lowered the dragon's head, then retracted its wings, and the entire dragon
The body fell straight down.
One thousand meters, eight hundred meters, six hundred meters...
In just a few seconds, the bone dragon descended directly to a position more than 100 meters above the city wall.
At this time, the bone dragon finally opened its bloody mouth full of fangs.
Roar!
With a deafening roar, the bone dragon's mouth suddenly shone with black and red light.
Immediately, the red and black light swept across the city wall like a jet of flame.
"what happened?"
"ah!"
Many orcs were awakened by the roar in a daze, but when they opened their confused eyes, there was only blood red in front of them.
Immediately, with just enough time to scream, these guys were wrapped in the dragon's breath of the bone dragon and turned into a running burning man.
Roar!
The giant dragon roared again after passing over the more than 100-meter-long city wall, and the dragon's breath that had just finished spraying was spit out again.
Then, a flame more than a hundred meters long shot up again on the right side of the city wall.
"what happened?"
At this time, everyone in Gusi who was sleeping comfortably in the tent at the middle of the city wall was woken up.
During dinner, he ate ten kilograms of barbecue and three bottles of wine, but he still didn't know what happened.
Hearing the noise outside, he immediately asked angrily.
How could he not be angry when he was woken up by someone on such a wonderful night with plenty of food and drink?
"Oops, the leader... it's a bone dragon, it's a bone dragon, the bone dragon is coming!"
At this time, panicked reports just came from outside the tent.
"What? Bone... bone dragon? How is this possible!" Gusi was immediately shocked when he heard this, and then hurriedly raised the mace beside him and quickly got out of the tent.
But when he saw the scene outside the tent, he immediately had the urge to vomit blood.
At this moment, I saw that the section of the city wall where the orcs were stationed was already blazing with flames.
A huge bone dragon was flying back and forth in the air, and each time it flew by it could eject a wall of flames hundreds of meters high.
And each wall of flames can harvest at least dozens of beast warriors.
"Asshole, how is this possible? Fight back quickly, use a spear to fight back!"
"Also, where are the elves, shoot your arrows quickly!"
Gusi did not dare to neglect, and quickly moved towards the direction of the bone dragon, while at the same time he kept giving orders to the surrounding orc soldiers.
As he roared, the chaotic orc crowd finally remembered to resist, and then sparse flying spears were thrown into the air.
However, such an attack is just an itch for the bone dragon.
The spear that shone with faint light hit the bone dragon, and was immediately blocked by a burst of black energy, and then turned into powder with a bang.
"Elf, shoot!"
Whoosh whoosh!
At this time, a group of elves finally ran up from the stairs of the city wall, and then began to shoot arrows at the bone dragon.
The arrows of these elves were shot with a green light, and when they hit the bone dragon, they were also blocked by the black energy, and then exploded into powder.
But obviously, the bone dragon also needs to consume energy to block the attacks of these arrows.
So the next moment he immediately accelerated his speed and flew towards the other end of the city wall.
"asshole!"
When Nagus saw this scene, he immediately cursed.
There are also many orc warriors gathered on the wall at the other end. Now that the bone dragon is flying over there, a bunch of those orc warriors will definitely die again.
However, he had no choice but to pursue him immediately with his mace.
"Elf warrior, pursue!"
At this time, the elven warriors saw the giant dragon changing positions and immediately began to pursue it.
The reason why these elves were not on the city wall before was because the orcs brought it upon themselves.
A few days ago, the night-watch soldiers of the Orcs had actually started to be lazy.
For this reason, many elves woke them up very honestly after seeing it, and reported the matter to their respective captains.
After the elven captain found out, he went to tell Gus.
After repeating this for two days, the orcs, including Gus and ordinary soldiers, were all a little tired of the elves who didn't know how to adapt.
In this way, Gus simply found the female leader of the elves and asked their elven warriors to be stationed at the corner. If there were really enemies, they would climb the city wall.
Therefore, the elven warriors on the right side of the city wall are living under the city wall these days.
I don’t know whether this is the luck of the elves or the bad luck of the orcs.
If there were elves present, the appearance of the bone dragon would definitely be discovered a moment in advance.
The orcs who have been warned by then will not be caught off guard, and the casualties will definitely be greatly reduced.
Of course, if this were the case, then the elves would have definitely suffered casualties before, and they would not have lost a single person like they did now.
"Asshole, go to hell!"
The orc Gusi did not regret taking the medicine. At this moment, he hurriedly arrived at the other side of the city wall.
Although this guy is not very smart, he has inherited the orcs' well-developed limbs and simple mind.
His strength is already comparable to that of Duke Miller, so even when facing this dark bone dragon, he is not afraid.
When he saw that this section of the city wall was also engulfed in flames, and at least hundreds of beast warriors were being roasted under the dragon's breath, he immediately leapt forward and swung the mace in his hand towards the giant dragon.
Roar!
The giant dragon roared upon seeing this, and immediately raised its feet to catch him.
Bang bang!
Gus's mace collided directly with the dragon's feet in the air.
They separated again with two bangs.
Gusi then hit the ground directly, and barely managed to land with a thud.
But there were large cracks around the soles of his feet.
"Hoar! The weak reptile dares to resist!"
The bone dragon in the sky roared when it saw this, and was ready to pursue it the next moment.
Whoosh whoosh!
Fortunately, the elves finally arrived at this time, and hundreds of arrows shining with green light formed a rain curtain, which made the bone dragon give up its urge to dive.
The Bone Dragon glanced at the dark army that was only a few hundred meters away from the city wall, "You weak reptiles, if it weren't for the purpose of saving strength to deal with the next city, I would personally deal with you!"
"However, none of you can run away tonight, I will watch you die in fear!"
After saying that, the bone dragon directly raised its height, waiting for the dark creatures to start attacking.
"How can this be……"
And when the bone dragon flew high into the sky, Gusi finally noticed the movement of becoming.
When he saw the densely packed, looming dark creatures below, extending to the end of the horizon, Gus was so frightened that his hair stood on end.
